The KOWA/Six is an extraordinary camera. Sometimes referred to as a "poor mans Hasselblad". Actually easier to use and superior in some unique ways: The Helical Focusing mount is removable for easy lens changing. The camera in much easier to load and interlocked so they can be removed or installed at Any Time whether the shutter is cocked or not or whether the film has been advanced or not.  Please see all photos of the actual camera for condition.

I believe it would be difficult if not impossible to find a better example of this very unusual SLR camera.    From my extensive collection of rare Vintage camera that I am selling because of my age.
